Ingredients

• 1 pound Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
• 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon Honey
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Cut the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces and set aside.

Step 2

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet or frying pan over medium heat.

Step 3

Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for about 1 minute, until fragrant.

Step 4

Add the chicken pieces to the skillet in a single layer and cook for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is browned on all sides.

Step 5

In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, lemon juice, paprika, salt, and black pepper.

Step 6

Pour the sauce over the chicken in the skillet and stir to coat the pieces evenly.

Step 7

Let the chicken cook in the sauce for an additional 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens slightly and the chicken is fully cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F/74°C).

Step 8

Remove the skillet from heat and garnish with chopped fresh parsley if desired.

Step 9

Serve the Chop Chop Chicken immediately over rice, in a wrap, or alongside your favorite side dishes.
